Is there a possibility to get the datatable that is set in the radgrid, when i set the datasource..
my problem is that i have a generic list, but i can't save the list in viewstate(no serialization) so i that i can hold my temp data..
okay i can manually fill a datatable with the list-values at first load and save the table in viewstate, but it is so ugly :D and this scenario looks so daily...
thx 4 help

Hello Bastian,
If I understand you correctly, you need to save the custom collection to which the grid is bound in DataTable type. If my understanding is right, there is no easy way of doing this. The grid does not alter the data source type. Hence if you bind it to custom collection, you can retrieve the same custom collection.
The only way to fill DataTable object is to do it manually, as you loop the whole custom collection. You can use reflection for this purpose, but this will decrease the performance and will conflict with medium trust server settings. Here is one code library from CodeProject which demonstrates the required functionality.
